A local benefit thrift store that often has really good stuff, has (2) rigs for sale. Abu Garcia Ambassador 6600 C4 reels, 8' Cabela's TSX medium rods, good looking line and a little rigging. Both appear to be in excellent condition. I can get them for ~$70 each. This strikes me as a good deal but I'm an admitted amateur. Thoughts?



I use a different thought process than most when it comes to trolling.....My preference is to use a regular spinning rod matched to the size fish I'm targeting along with downriggers....unless of course the fish are near the surface.
